Wiring down into the electrical area under the bed. Hope to drive to Bend Or. to Explorist lifestyle, (they have a YouTube Channel), as we are purchasing the Victron equipment from them. They have a great wiring diagram as well, 10.00 bucks, that we will follow. Son-in-law is an electrical contracture, so will buy wire, etc through him, wholesale.

For anyone that wants to know, here are the components we chose for off grid camping. We purchased from Explorist life in Bend Or, and so far super to deal with.

Last solar panel up all the solar panel wiring is now inside the van. Here is also the battery that’s the heart of the whole situation. Just out of curiosity I measure the voltage off those three solar panels inside the shop and I was getting 90 V at 12.9 A.
